The Court's materials
At "La Corte del Legno," we carefully select our materials to ensure products that are not only beautiful, but also safe and long-lasting. Our cutting boards, tables, and wall clocks are crafted from premium woods such as walnut, oak, and ash, chosen for their natural characteristics: strength, durability, and unique beauty.
Wood, in addition to being eco-friendly and sustainable, is naturally antibacterial, making our products safe for everyday kitchen use. Each piece is crafted without the use of harmful substances and treated with natural oils to protect it and preserve its qualities.
We use premium epoxy resin, a transparent and durable material that blends perfectly with natural wood. This crystalline resin allows for unique and colorful effects, ensuring long-lasting durability and a professional, glossy finish. Each casting is handcrafted with artisanal care to achieve extraordinary and one-of-a-kind results.
We combine tradition and functionality to offer you objects that meet the highest hygiene and safety standards, perfect for your everyday life.
The Creation Process
Each piece is born from a meticulous, four-step artisanal process. First, we prepare the ash or olive wood base, protecting the edges with tape. Then, we carefully pour colored epoxy resin into the natural cavities of the wood. In the third step, we level and evenly distribute the resin to create the desired effect. Finally, after it has fully cured, we polish the piece to achieve a crystal-clear, professional finish. The result is a unique work of art where wood and resin blend in perfect harmony.
